Usually this is a result of your host not aliasing /tmp to a directory in your own web space path. Remove the / before /tmp and create the directory and it will probably start working. On the other hand, my sessions are stored in the database but for the life of me I cannot find the setting that tells osC to use the database instead of the directory.

 

Hopefully someone else will correct me.

This error message will go away if you use the MySQL database as the session store. To configure osCommerce to use the MySQL store, change the following line in both of the configure.php files:

 

define('STORE_SESSIONS', '');

to be this:

 

define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'mysql');

Note that this will have the effect of logging everyone out and aborting any checkouts that were in progress. It will also empty any temporary shopping carts for customers who were not logged in.
